25
And you all know
  • SHIFT happens

26
What should we do?
27
Did you know
  • Committees and subcommittees met monthly
    and bi-monthly for 12 months.
  • Writing committee meetings were held at least
    3 times per week for 5 months.
  • 270 employees, students and community
    members were involved.
  • The focus was on student success and student
    engagement.
  • The result was the QEP.

28
Did you know The Overall Goal for the QEP is
to
  • Acclimate students to the college environment and
    support their persistence through the achievement
    of their established goals by implementing
    policies to address
  • Transitional (Developmental) programs
  • Secondary educational level
  • Postsecondary educational level
  • Advising
  • First-Year Experience

29
Did you knowThe Transitional Programs
(developmental) goal has two parts
  • Secondary - High School Partnerships
  •  Curricula will be aligned.
  • A mentoring program between faculties will be
    initiated.
  • Pre-tests and Post-tests will be administered.
  • College sponsored workshops will be offered in
    the secondary schools.
  • The local P-16 Council has endorsed this activity
    as a project for the council.
  • This activity fits perfectly with a system-wide
    initiative to improve college and workforce
    readiness.

30
Transitional Programs (developmental)
  • Post-secondary to address the individualized
    needs of students enrolled in developmental
    courses.
  • Identify students with borderline placement
    scores.
  • Implement the use of the diagnostic component of
    the placement test for students identified with
    borderline placement scores.
  • Create opportunities for individualized or small
    group instruction.
  • Explore other best practices to improve student
    success.

31
Did you knowThe second major goal for the QEP
is Advising
  • To develop and implement improved advising
    services that increase the students ability to
    identify, select, and execute an academic plan.
  • Develop policies and procedures to assist
    students in academic planning and career
    exploration through a new Center for Student
    Engagement.
  • Establish procedures for systematic monitoring of
    student progress.

32
Did you KnowNew and Improved Advising will
  • Ensure all students have an appropriate assigned
    advisor.
  • Refer undecided students to the Career and
    Transfer Services Center.
  • Provide training and workshops in advising best
    practices.
  • Post current academic programs requirements on
    the college website.
  • Identify probation students.
  • Notify advisors of students who have probationary
    status.
  • Schedule advising meetings with advisees.
  • Refer students to appropriate resources when
    warranted.

33
Did you know
34
The third major goal for the QEP is related to
the First-Year Experience
  • To implement a first-year experience program that
    will engage students and establish connections to
    learner support services throughout their college
    career.
  • To move the first-year experience beyond merely
    an introduction to college course. Under the
    Center for Student Engagement, this program will
    be expanded to include the coordination of
    numerous activities utilized to promote
    interaction among students, faculty, and staff.

35
Did you know
36
The QEP will involve and impact the entire college
  • A Center for Student Engagement will be
    established and will serve as a vehicle for
    delivery of many of the improvement actions.
  • Over an eight-year period of time, across all
    campus locations, we expect to
  • Attract more local students who are ready for
    college level mathematics.
  • Improve the success of those students who need
    developmental math after entering BSCTC.
  • Engage many more students and improve student
    success.
  • See greater levels of student learning.
  • Experience increased retention rates.
  • Improve graduation rates.
  • Have more students who transfer to four-year
    colleges and achieve success.

37
Did you know
